, bishop of Bergen, who was
born in 1698, at Aarhuus, in Denmark, and died in 1764,
wrote several works respecting the history and geography
of that kingdom; one of which, his “History of Norway,”
was translated into English in 1755. His other publications are less known in this country. He must be distinguished from another Danish writer of both his names,
author of a Danish grammar, a collection of epigrams and
other articles of Latin poetry. He was born in 1616, and
died in 1678. 2
